Perennial

Height 24 in

The Chinese Lantern plant is a herbaceous perennial that grows to less than one meter in height, and belongs to the Solanaceae or nightshade family. This is a highly ornamental plant - the erect stalks that bears broad and flat, heart-shaped leaves with creamy white flowers and brightly coloured, bulbous seed pods. It is mostly grown for its the papery orange decorative 'lanterns' (calyces) that encloses round berries in autumn.

 The white flowers contain five petals with a slightly curved shape, averaging 1 to 2 cm in diameter; as the flower matures the petals will drop, allowing the calyx to expand, and envelop a growing berry. The inflated calyx, (seedpod), is green when young, transitioning through shades of yellow, orange, to orange-red with maturity. As the pod develops, it will also become thin and brittle with a paper-like consistency, averaging 4 to 5 cm in diameter; these can be utilized in culinary and medicinal applications when ripe

Chinese Lantern Berries:

  • Berries average 1 to 2 cm in diameter and are aqueous, encasing many small, ivory seeds. The berries change from bright red to an orange, cream-coloured hue when ripened, mellowing in flavour from very sour and acidic to subtly sweet, acidic, and tangy with maturity.
  • Chinese Lantern berries can be used fresh, cooked, or dried. Raw berries can be eaten whole as a snack, or the berries can be tossed into green salads, chopped into relishes, sliced into salsas, or blended into juices and smoothies.
  • Chinese Lantern berries can also be cut and layered over toast, used as a substitute for sweet tomatoes in dishes, or simmered into sauces for roasted meats.
  • In addition to savory preparations, the berries can be cooked into jams, incorporated into pie fillings, or baked into cakes, tarts, and scones.
  • Chinese Lantern berries pair well with meats such as pork, turkey, poultry, and fish, cucumbers, avocadoes, corn, dark chocolate, honey, citrus, peaches, and herbs such as basil, rosemary, and parsley.
  • The berries can be stored in their papery husks until ready for use and will continue to ripen.
  • Once husked, the berries will keep 1 to 3 days when stored in the refrigerator.
  • Chinese Lantern berries are an excellent source of vitamin C, an antioxidant that increases collagen production in the skin, reduces inflammation, and boosts the immune system. The berries also contain vitamin A, a nutrient that helps maintain healthy organ functioning, calcium to strengthen bones and teeth, and lower amounts of iron and phosphorus. In traditional Chinese and Unani medicines, Chinese Lantern berries were used in ancient times as a diuretic and were believed to contain anti-inflammatory properties. 
  • Roots can be dug up in fall and roasted for use as a coffee substitute.

Note: Only the ripe berries of Chinese Lantern plants are edible, and the leaves, calyxes, and unripe berries are considered toxic and should not be consumed as they are inedible.

Prune dead wood back in late fall. Makes excellent cut and dried ornamentals. Perfect for container growing.

Best Pillow Ever

I am absolutely obsessed with these pillows! They have the perfect balance of firmness and softness, providing amazing support for my head and neck. I've never slept better, and I can honestly say I'd order more in a heartbeat. These pillows are a game-changer for my sleep quality. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for the ultimate comfort.

Worth it!
Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
These pillows are amazing and very soft and comfortable. They came nicely packaged and I let them sit out for just a few hours before using them and that was plenty of time! They come with the cooling cover and fit a standard queen sized pillowcase. The material expands well and does not have any weird smells. 10/10 well worth the price.

Miracle pillow
Size: Standard(Pack of 2)
Best pillow I’ve ever had. I have been using this since December 2024 and it still hasn’t gotten flat. It is amazingly comfortable and solves all my neck issues for a side sleeper. My head never gets hot either. I’ve recommended this to my friends and they’ve had success with it as well.

Really wanted to love these
Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
I really wanted to love these but they gave me a stiff neck. I haven't slept with a pillow since buying these. They are firm except where you lay your head. It just deflates there. I expected it to sink in to match the curve of my neck but it was more than I could handle. My head ended up in a valley between the two ends of the pillow. The price was good, zipper worked fine, it looks as advertised and the pillows are good quality. The cooling part works, its just not what I needed.

best pillow I have ever bought.
Size: Queen(Pack of 2)
most comfortable pillow I have ever bought. It seems very well put together so I believe that it will last a long time. Very happy with the purchase. I do think the weight of the pillow will surprise many people because while it is quite heavy, it is very firm and extremely comfortable. Great value.
